I just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed your company and that of your brother, and how much I will miss you both. You really have been kind to me, and to my family.
[She doesn't understand. Not really. A year and a half in this place and no one has ever really been able to predict that they were leaving. So she just assumes the guy is a little crossfaded and confused. Who hasn't been there before?]
Well, duh. I'm always a hoot. Go on ahead if you gotta, but we'll be here for whenever you get back, champ.
[ Elves of the First Age of Arda tend to have the gift of foresight. In his own world, it mostly warned him of some damned horrible thing that was about to happen, and since it always did happen, he counts his ability as real. But right now, he wishes it was just a case of being confused! ]
You are always a hoot. [ Affectionate smile. ] But I won't be back. This is permanent.
Oh, hey. I have a gift for your brother, if you'd care to pass it on. I made him a necklace like the one I made for you, so you'd be matching.
[Lup can't quite understand, not without any earlier mention of this power, so she's just going to run on the assumption the elf just got a little too high before calling her.
She won't turn down the free gifts though.]
Dope! Sure thing, I'm sure he'll love that. I've seen him eying mine up and down on the daily.
[ And it would be such a long discussion, to mention his power of foresight or the power that allows him to depart at his will and not by way of the Door. It's too late to begin, and besides, he'd rather joke and be affectionate while there is time. ]
I'm a dope, I know it! [ Grin. ] You always do tell it like it is, Lup.
In that case, he'll be pleased, because his necklace looks just like yours. Shall I bring it to you? Or shall I just package it and drop it on his doorstep on my way out of this place?
